A routine previous to a key moment in your life helps you to be focused and use all your training to reach your goal. It normally includes: 1. Focus on the present. 2. Focus on what you know and what you have to do. 3. Regulation of your arousal state. Do you have a routine for those important moments?

Positive affirmation can be anything that helps move YOU forward towards excellence: -- "Keep calm. Carry on." -- "Be brave. Light heart." -- "Fight the Good Fight." Q for Leaders: How can self-talk help you win the battles you fight with yourself? What positive affirmations work for you?

Amazing to see top performers focusing on the fundamentals of #mindset and #psychology. When the competition heats up, keeping your focus positive is essential. Those little voices of doubt and insecurity are waiting for even the slightest chink in your armour, and if you give them even just a moment, they will derail your performance. By speaking affirmations aloud, you do two things: - Firstly, it is practically impossible to have a different conversation in your brain and your mouth at the same time. By speaking positive words, it means there is no space in your brain for negative thoughts. - Secondly, if you believe the words, they might actually happen. Whether your vocalisation focuses on technique, impact or attitude, there is a far greater chance that outcome will occur as a result of focusing on it. What are you saying to yourself today to keep yourself positive, motivated, and focused on the best possible outcomes? Or does this not work in a business context? #positivemindset #positivepsychology

This is great - and it showcases what we always hear - what you say and how you say it to yourself (in your head or otherwise) has an impact you reaching your goals/dreams. I have been making this a priority for myself over the last twelve months as last July I made a career decision that was huge for me - and it has worked wonders. How do YOU talk to yourself? #workinprogress #powerofpositivethinking #positiveaffirmations #deepbreaths

Positive Self Talk is the Best Talk

I love this! Here’s 2 specific ways that I use positive self-talk to help me engage an audience: 1. Just before I’m about to hit the stage, whether for a keynote, workshop or comedy gig, I remind myself of what I need to do to get the results I want. Sometimes it’s a simple as “you’ve got this”, “listen and respond” or “take your time”. 2. When I actually hit the stage, I smile and think “welcome”, “I’m so glad you’re here” or “this is gonna be fun” while looking at the audience. This get me in an appreciative, present mindset that connects me to the audience and relaxes me so that I maximize my capacity to deliver with ease, joy and impact. I’d love to hear what works for you!

Positive self-talk makes all the difference in realizing your dreams or not. When you convince yourself that you *can* achieve them, you probably will. Let’s practice: leave a comment with a positive affirmation!

The Power of Positive Confessions What we speak over our lives has a direct impact on how we live. Words have creative power—they shape our reality, influence our mindset, and fuel our actions. That’s why making positive confessions daily can transform your outlook and direct your steps toward success and fulfillment. Here are a few powerful affirmations to speak over yourself: I am strong and capable of achieving great things. I embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and success. Every day, I am getting closer to my goals and dreams. My efforts are producing fruitful results, and I am prospering in all I do. Remember, what you confess consistently over your life, you eventually see manifest. Surround yourself with words of encouragement, and speak what you desire to become. The Bible says, "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7). Your thoughts and words are key in shaping your destiny. What are you speaking over your life today? Let’s be intentional with our words and create the future we envision!
